You have obviously already been brain-washed with `revised politically
correct' history - resulting in one dumbed-down fool.

I guess you weren't around or you'd know how preposterous that lie is.
American volunteers flying with RAF against German blitz and against
the Japanese in China. American Merchant Marine risking their lives to
bring lend lease supplies to England and USSR. US Navy blockading
Japan to force an end to Chinese aggression. Kids off the street
corner training with wooden guns in attempt to get ready. After Dec.
7th, 1941, Enlistment offices were swamped. New recruits were soon on
the way to Australia and African landing that proceeded campaign in
Africa, Sicily, Italy, France, Belgium, and ultimately Germany with
liberation of Concentration Camps. Incidentally there was a ton of
`collateral damage' on all sides.

I guess Canadians took part, most countries did, but I can't for the
life of me recall a single great Canadian achievement on the way to
Unconditional Surrender. Aussies were crucial in some of the Pacific
action. Perhaps they were a part of the British Forces under
Montgomery, who the Americans opined had a severe case of the `Slows',
particularly in Belgium and the last German offensive in Dec, 1944. I
do recall a few Canadians assigned guard duty in British Sector after
the fighting was over.

>Offensive....or do you recall it it differently?
Very differently. It failed.

>Now, I am not here to slag American's, even though it is pretty easy to do.
Yes when one relies on lies and propaganda. You are street debris.
